With current electronics shortage and all the major companies like Microsoft, Google, Nvidia pushing for cloud based subscription system, it really feels like Apple is caught pants down, dead last. Do they have any plans to tackle this ****storm? TBH, I get jitters just to use a dumb terminal with screen, kb, mouse and internet to stream your virtualised OS. Your data where each pdf, docx, jpg, png or any file belongs to Cloud service provider.

Apple is my only hope but how long do you guys think can Apple sustain these hardware product launches if OpenAI, MS, Google, Oracle, Anthropic, etc, etc keep on gobbling up every piece of components of this world? What if this bubble is somehow sustaining for another 10 years? Apple’s AI is a big failure and it seems like Apple has already missed that bus.

the news said this about gasoline and oil shortages and limited and depleting supplies,
we should use wasteful, costly alternatives instead.
meanwhile the USA sits on the most reserves on this planet as sustainable alternatives are failing.

supply and demand, some feel the demand has shrunk.
when we need more chips, they will make em!

so, enjoy your computers because they are not going anywhere!
